So lots has happened since I have blogged as always. I took a trip to Oklahoma. Yeah I know what you are thinking.. why Oklahoma of all places to take a vacation? Well there are lots of awesome people there in "God's country" as Jon would say. So it was a pretty exciting trip. I had some airport issues but I still love to fly. I think I may return in May to see graduation at Oklahoma State. Tis a very nice area and they have red dirt there.. awesome.
Yesterday night my family and I went to see the Cleveland Orchestra's annual Christmas concert. We see this concert every year and every year I have a renewed interest in orchestral music. I mean I love all music, but there is something about being in the room when a full orchestra is playing that really gets to me. When we were listening I felt I was the only person in the room listening. I was moving my body to the music. It was just awesome. I do not know how else to describe it other than beautiful. Almost a spiritual time.
I think I am going to begin picking up more hours at work. I need to stay a little more busy these days because I have quite a bit on my mind. I am not sure how to describe it but there are things, events, and future ideas on my mind that have been bugging me alot. So since I do not have a whole lot going on in Medina, as far as people are concerned I am going to pick up more working hours.
Currently my family and I are watching The Polar Express. This is one of my favorite Christmas movies. It is a fairly new one but still my favorites. It reminds me of the times when my parents would read me the book as a child. Yay for profound childhood moments.
Anyway, I hope everyone who reads this has a Merry Christmas.

Well here I am again. I would post more often but I'm just not sure who really reads this. Yet for those fans out there, here I am again. Since I last posted not a whole lot has occured. Michael W. Smith came out with a new album. U2 did also, but kinda new kinda not. I purchased plane tickets to go to Oklahoma mid-December. This is an exciting trip, first because I am getting paid to go, two because I get to go into three different states (one not being Ohio), and three because I get to have some fun with some pretty great people.
I cannot believe that it is December already. It seems like November or this year in general pretty much flew by. Seems like yesterday I was glued to my television during awards season, or graduation occured, watched one of my best friends get married, and that I was stressing my self to death without actually having a heart attack about nursing state boards. Yet here I am in and amongst the hustle and bustle of the Christmas season. I love this time of year. I love the commercials that make me cry.. especially the jewelry one's even though I am not one who is big on jewelry. I love the music you hear in every store. I love going shopping, whether I am just browsing or actually purchasing an item. I love talking with friends and family at this time of year. Tis a great time of year, even despite the coldness, but it makes this time good for cuddling... well, with my kitty
